Kiwis want a healthy home that saves money

After 3 years in the making eHaus is now really gathering momentum. We are working with 5 new clients already this year...its only February! We are finding that a typical client is one that has read about Passive House or seen the construction on Grand Designs and realises just how much more it offers over a normal code build.

Our job is to understand your specific requirements and work this into a design and build process that gives certainty of performance along with function and beauty. As well as training building companies around the country we have been busy establishing a relationship with a team of 5 design companies. This solid foundation will enable the brand of Passive House called eHaus to be a viable choice for all Kiwis that want a healthy home that saves money through energy efficiency.

Having become Passive House certified in 2011 we have been developing our skills further and have become qualified to offer the Air Tightness Testing with the purchase of the first eHaus Minneapolis Blower Door. This was an obvious decision as each house we build has to be tested to ensure that it conforms to the standard. We are also able to offer testing as a stand alone service if you require this.

It was great to spend a day earlier this month honing our skills with the technical engineer from Zehnder who are one of the Passive House certified ventilation providers around the world. There have been challenges to overcome as with anything worth having but the gains once these are met and dealt with are so significant.
